I personally vouch for this type of workout program just for gaining raw strength and size. I'm only showing numbers to show what I've worked up to over the past year and im still going. I weighed 130 beginning of my senior year, 2010 and now in 2012, shipping out to basic July 30th I feel much more confident in myself after giving my heart and soul to Stronglifts 5x5 workout! Any questions I would be more than glad to answer!

Walk 5 miles every morning with a 30KG pack on. 30 minutes of weights afterwards from curls to working my chest, upper back and shoulders.
I walk 15 miles with a 30KG pack at least once a week. I'd do it more often, but it takes 3-4 hours.

Don't just do the same exercises all the time. Your body gets used to it and your progress will slow. I work muscle groups rather than doing fixed exercises and do a different exercise week to week and change weight and rep/set numbers regularly. Every month or two I will change up what days I do what muscle groups. Right now my schedule looks like this:

Monday: Chest, Triceps and abs (alternating from high weight low rep to high rep low weight every couple of weeks)
Tuesday: Cardiovascular training session. One hour boot camp with variable exercises.
Wednesday: Back, Biceps and abs
Thursday: Another bootcamp session
Friday: Legs and Core
Saturday: Random exercise day/rest
Sunday: If I had a rest on Saturday I make up for it here.

Overall my workout routine is pretty loose. I find it gives you much more real world strength with the exercise variation. It also stops things from getting boring.

Bro.. where's your decline presses at? Decline is essentially, and technically, the best chest exercise you can do. Try this:

Ex. 1) Decline
Ex. 2) Incline
Ex. 3) Flat Dumbbell Flyes.

Your chest will be completely smoked, and if it's not, you aren't doing it right/not enough weight. Your first 2 sets should be "warm-ups". Light weight with moderate strain. Your last set should be heavy weight, intense strain until failure. If you have someone to spot for you, work the negatives.

Week 2
Day 1) Delts & Triceps
So on, so forth. Actually getting to where I want to do multiple major muscle groups in the same day but after 3 days of high intensity workouts (exclusive dumbbells, I love using stabilizing muscles) and jogging 3 times a week, I just feel really bombed and have to take 24-48 hours off; give my system time to fully recover.

I don't super set anything with this routine, although my other is based entirely around supersetting. 4-5 exercises done back to back with no rest, high weight but I find that I "pace" more with it than the above routine which doesn't really promote as much growth.

Interesting, I'm rather new going to the gym and I've basically have been doing an assortment of machines lifting 12 times at the most weight I can manage and doing the same thing each day. What is the benefit of working a set pair of muscles each day and why not go to the gym everyday?

The benefit is growth. The following muscles need, at the least, 24 hours of rest between workouts: Pecs (chest: upper, lower), Back (Traps, Lats, Lower), Biceps and Triceps, Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Calves, and Deltoids. You can work your core every day of the week and not really suffer from a "burn out".

What you described is you just lifting a heavy weight 12 times and calling it a day for that particular exercise. I'm assuming you aren't hitting muscle failure nor are you working negatives. Repetitions do NOT matter. Setting the weight so that you can hit a particular number is called "pacing". It doesn't promote as much growth as "maximizing" does (enough weight to where you can perform a random number of reps but you eventually cannot lift it anymore, which is called "muscle failure" and approximately between 6-8 reps). The more damage (burn, fatigue) that is caused to your muscles the stronger they become.

I think I would actually work out if I was rich, then I could buy nice equipment or afford a gym membership

Otherwise, I'd have to jog around a neighborhood that's all up and down hill with no sidewalk in traffic... and lift free weights....... doesn't feel worth it...

I once lost 50 pounds when I was dating a chick who's apartment complex had a free gym in it, but have since gained it back over the years. Treadmills seem to work wonders but I can't afford to buy one of my own -_-

I don't plan what exactly im going to do in terms of what excercises for my muscles.

Tuesday Legs/abs
Thursday Arms/Shoulders
Saturday Chest/Back

Inbetween is cardio. I believe in doing different excercises each time so i'll do what ever I can to train that muscle for that day so I just have a routine for what muscle im going to train on that day and ignore how im going to do it.
